Cinnamon Bark Extract

Cinnamon Bark Extract is taken from the dried bark of cultivated trees and is considered to be of much higher quality than extract derived from leaves. It contains an essential oil that is not only recognized for its soothing effects, but is also known to have antibacterial properties.

Ginger Root Extract /h3>

Ginger Root Extract provides gingerols that are known to have soothing properties. It also helps to absorb excess oil.

How to Apply:
- Use twice daily
- Wet face, then work acne cleanser into a lather
- Massage onto face, avoiding the eyes
- Rinse well
Cool Kiehl’s Fact:
When our chemists developed Kiehl’s iconic Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion in 1964, its popularity took off almost from the start. Over forty years later, we attribute its appeal not only to its superior quality, but also its versatility. Kiehl’s male patrons tell us they use it as a post-shave treatment to soothe skin and prevent razor discomfort. Legend has it that Andy Warhol was a fan!

I've been using this for years. I use it every morning. It's eucalyptus aroma really helps wake me up and I let it set on my face for an extra few seconds before washing it off so it gives me a light tingle -- very refreshing!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kiehls4Life Acne = Thing of the Past
I am a fourteen year old guy who has been struggling with minor to moderate acne on my t-zone, as well as oily skin on my nose. To make matters worse, I was also suffering from dry skin. This innovative Kiehl's Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser was a lifesaver from the first day I started using it. It gave a little tingle, which really made it feel like it was working, and in less than a week my skin was clear, and there were no blemishes. Pair this with the Kiehl's Blue Astringent Herbal Lotion, and the duo works like a miracle. The Herbal Lotion leaves my skin feeling tight (in a good way) and makes my pores feel nice and refreshed. To help with the dry skin I have, instead of using the Blue Herbal Moisturizer, I use the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Oil-Free Gel Cream, which really leaves my skin feeling hydrated without the excess oil.
These three amazing Kiehl's products does wonders for my skin, and will suggest these products to anyone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by LovingThisProduct Amazing Product
I have been using this product for nearly a year now and I love it! I keep purchasing it because it is the best face wash I have ever owned. I use to have horrible acne and it is completely gone! Every now and then I'll get a tiny pimple but as soon as I use this stuff it is gone within 2 days guaranteed. I use it every night and every morning. It makes your face feel like someone's blowing mint on it, it is so refreshing! I highly recommend it. I have super oily skin and this keeps it at bay. However, during the day my face does get oily again but it keeps the oil away for about 6 hours so that's not bad at all!! Try it out, you wont be disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by holllop00 Cured my acne!
I have had acne for the majority of my childhood and now into my adult years. I have tried many products such as Proactive, Mario Badescu, and countless others I cannot name. Nothing has ever really worked for me because I have extremely sensitive skin and severe acne. So after years and years of searching for something that fit well with my skin type and cured acne, I finally found my miracle product. Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser is such a smooth and calming product. I wash my face with it every single night, and it never dries out my sensitive skin. The cooling minty feel and scent helps reassure me that I am getting a deep cleanse from this gel. I love everything about it. It is reasonably priced, and shows great results that make it worth the money. It has been about 3 weeks since I first started using this cleanser and my acne has already vanished on 80% of my face. I am confident enough to leave the house without makeup, and I have Kiehls to thank for that! I would definitely recommend this product if you are trying to cure acne. I am also using the blue Herbal Toner to compliment this gel cleanser. I now refer to these two products as the Acne Wonder Duo!

Rated 5 out of 5 by LolaLaBomba The cleanser that finally worked for me- no more cystic acne!
I love this cleanser. It feels and smells like it is REALLY working. It doesn't dry out my skin and, best of all, after 30 years of fighting cystic acne, I haven't had a "big, hard. bump" in about six months!

I have used every cleanser to combat my adult acne...from expensive department store brands to over the counter types. I actually have done research to find the most effective cleanser for my oily, acne prone, and slightly aging skin. I read other reviews about the Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser and had to try it. I am so glad I did as it did everything it promised...It is clearing up my pimples without drying me out and feels tingly after washing my face. I LOVE it!
